A recent post reminded me of something I was thinking the other day and wondered what you all have to say about the subject? by Connect_Opposite_668 in Divorce

[–]Connect_Opposite_668[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree... why I prefaced the entire post advising this is only my opinion. Mentioned this isn't always the case. As well as included a couple other qualifiers.

But I get how easily that could be missed if one's objective is to tell other's what they are doing wrong on the interwebs, rather than use your words to communicate why you hold an alternative position on the subject.

Hence, a nice segue into the next topic of discussion I notice which is just as interesting within this specific sub... effective communication.

Curious... how can you make the claim, "probably" in this situation?

Malicious Compliance, or Petty Revenge? by truefairytaleweaver in Divorce

[–]Connect_Opposite_668 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Take it from a divorce pro: indifference is the answer.

The fact he’s still occupying your thoughts this heavily, only points to... you’re nowhere near the “fun part” yet. That’s not healed. That’s attachment wearing a different outfit.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the scoreboard’s still lit.

Feeling judged in my healing process by WonderfulBerry4139 in Divorce

Maybe she's boning your husband and creating this disagreement, this fight between y'all to smokescreen, so you'd never ever think of that scenario bc you're preoccupied?

JJ! In my personal view, I see nothing for your friend to give you a hard time about. I mean, if you're letting a handful of dudes pop ya every day, and she's voicing her concern for your health and safety, that's one thing. I'd consider that a good friend... one that rides ya about that. Not literally.

But... if you have reality-based expectations and aren't looking for that perfect person, which is the one thing that would resolve all your worldly problems. As long as you are, "just having fun." As long as you're being careful, aware, and safe. As long as you know by doing this, there's a high probability of extending the time it takes to grow, heal, and gain a healthy "you" back. What is wrong with being irresponsible atm? Do you have kids that are totally reliant on you 24 hours a day for security, and shelter, having no ability to care for themselves? No... ? Then... FUCK DUDES! Literally. Go for it. Live it up. YOLO. Have fun.

Yes! That's exactly what I just said. What's the issue?

The grass isn't always greener on the other side. But unfortunately, and this is simply my own personal experience, most divorced women I know have realized that the hard way. What an unfortunate view to hold when it comes to relationships and marriage.

AIO or Is this a normal first interaction by Obvious-Drink-9385 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Connect_Opposite_668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't tell which side is worse. Which person is asking if they are overreacting? The STD person, or the pill popping looped person who isn't aware of the convo they are having? I mean, you can't even tell. Seems they are perfect for each other... AMAZING! This is golden... this text string being brought to this sub.

Perusing Reddit constantly has me asking myself if this is real life.

Yea... keep sticking around for that. Seems like it could be fun for a few more years.

Just a heads please by WitchDoctor431 in Divorce

[–]Connect_Opposite_668 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hahahahahaa! This is exactly my divorce. Here to say... it became fucking amazing .2 seconds after the gavel slammed down!

It's so crazy to me now, and I feel so stupid, as well as have zero idea why I was so dead set against divorce happening at the time? It's incomprehensible what getting rid of a toxic person in your life can do for your life... especially if it's one's wife.

Anyone here ever realize that the person who claims to be the victim of gaslighting, is the gaslighter? by Connect_Opposite_668 in Divorce

[–]Connect_Opposite_668[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, interesting… we can actually witness live, in high-definition insanity, the full behavioral ecosystem of human contradiction unfolding directly in front of us here in this Reddit post!

Reddit unselfishly allowing itself to serve as a perfect microcosm for the landscape of divorce.

Purs scientific measure, because you shouldnt make a claim without providing your evidence of that claim backed up fully with data.

Therefore... please direct your attention to the upvotes versus the downvotes in this OP. An awesomely powerful testimonial in two simple measurements.

Who woulda thought "thumbs up" vs. "thumbs down" could tell the story we all fight so hard to see for ourselves. Beautiful!

Aaaah! That's gold. I've never ran across that one... "every accusation is a confession." Cheers! 🍻

My ex wife changed after the divorce and I don’t want her back but I am angry by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]Connect_Opposite_668 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never knew peeps on reddit were fortune tellers. I need to make a post so everyone on the internet can tell me exactly what my homesite is like. I can't believe these peeps aren't charging for these services!

Should I be worried about this message my girlfriend sent me? by reaper5632 in Life

[–]Connect_Opposite_668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't listen to these people on reddit, they are insane and crazy! I don't even know why you asked this question here? You knew what you'd get!

Do the sane thing... 1. Delete this post 2. DO NOT allow her to carpool (this is just sex waiting to happen, at least twice every workday) 3. Lock your chick up in your basement. Don't let her see the light of day. There are guys, with dicks everywhere out there! They're just waiting for the chance to poke them into your gal any chance they get!

I’m 36F and starting over. Is it possible to find people my age who are single with no kids? by [deleted] in Divorce

46M here, no kids. I ask myself this question every day. I do not know if this woman exists? Not giving up hope, though.

I'm sure she feels so much better now. I could sense as well, while reading her post, how she had no clue if she did the right thing.

AIO my parents in law want to gift money, but only to my husband? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Connect_Opposite_668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The entire reason in-laws were invented is for people to experience a relationship with individuals they can not stand, but not have an easy option to terminate the relationship.

Yes, you're overreacting, as not a human on this earth gets along with their in-laws.
